"Putting aside family background, the Sheng family cannot tolerate Qin Feifei's gossip. My Sheng Qing's marriage is his own decision, and we, as elders, will never interfere. If the Qin family insists on spreading rumors and slandering the Sheng family, we will pursue them to the end!"
"Now I'm going to get down to business. My stupid wife, who's always siding with outsiders, has been leeched off by the Qin family for the past year. It's one thing for her to use her own money to help them out, but I don't know how the Qin family tricked her into giving them her dowry from the Gu family, as well as her husband's and children's savings accounts. She's doing everything the Qin family can to bleed the Sheng family dry!"
"I just want to ask, is the Qin family your maternal family? Do you even care about your in-laws? In your eyes, are my children and grandchildren just tools for you to make money? Are we, the descendants of the dignified Sheng family, born to be slaves to your Qin family? Spreading rumors about my grandchildren and stealing their money, your in-laws are too despicable."
“We are not afraid of anyone investigating. Those savings are all the hard-earned money of my children and grandchildren!”
Seeing that the situation was about to improve, Old Master Sheng spoke up at the right time, "Hand over the bankbook and seal immediately. Repay whatever amount has been used. If you refuse to return the money, we will immediately report you to the police and arrest you. We will not tolerate it. Also, Qin Feifei has absolutely no relation to my grandson. If I hear any more of those crazy words or hear the Qin family using the Sheng family's name to swindle and bully others, they will bear the consequences!"
Old Master Cheng and Grandma Cheng nodded. "We're here to help Brother Sheng keep things under control. More people means better debt collection. The Qin family has stolen far too much, and the amount is enormous. We're definitely not here to discuss marriage. Sheng Qing wouldn't have married Qin Feifei before, and he certainly won't in the future. Please spread the word and don't be deceived by the Qin family again."
When Zhou Derong heard this news, it was like a bolt from the blue. She never dreamed that the Sheng and Cheng families had really come to collect debts. They had publicly humiliated the Qin family and distanced themselves from them completely, determined to make the Qin family suffer.
What hurts the most is the savings; she has already regarded them as her own property. How can she accept giving them back?
Besides, some of the money in those savings accounts was used a few days ago, and there's no way to get the money back in a short time.
"What bankbook? I've never seen it before." Granny Qin was a little guilty, but not much. She had never seen the savings account, but it was true that Madam Sheng would occasionally give subsidies to the Qin family, and each time the amount was quite substantial.
As long as they deny it to the death, who can prove that Madam Sheng gave them the money?
Zhou Derong's eyes flickered, and she changed the subject, "Mom, the issue isn't the savings account, it's our marriage to the Sheng family. Feifei and Baoming's marriage is off, and the Sheng family has to give us an explanation."
Gu Wanwan didn't miss the guilty look in her eyes and wouldn't allow the other woman to change the subject. "Then you'll have to ask your good daughter-in-law. She has a huge sum of money but doesn't let the Qin family know. It seems she doesn't consider herself a member of the Qin family. Well, the Qin family hasn't split up yet, so she naturally has some selfish motives. She got the savings by trickery, so why should she give it to the Qin family? It's enough for her own branch to be rich. The other branches can just drink the leftover soup."
Granny Qin was furious and insisted on demanding justice from the Sheng family. "You five great families shouldn't go too far. You were the ones who said you'd marry her, and you're the ones who said you wouldn't. What do you take the Qin family for? Are you just playing with the Qin family?"
“You must give the Qin family justice. The capital city is not a place where the five great families can control everything. If you really want to turn your back on us, I will go to other families to help us. I don’t believe that no one will help the Qin family.”
“We didn’t steal any money, and we didn’t hide any bankbooks. Go ahead and report us to the police.”
She acted as if she were completely unfazed, determined that the other party wouldn't be able to find anything.
Zhou Derong felt uneasy, but thinking that the bankbook was hidden in a secret place that most people wouldn't be able to tell, she felt relieved. "My Qin family has a clear conscience and would never stoop to such despicable acts."
